Delhi Police Filed Chargesheet Against BJP MP Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh for Sexual Harassment and Stalking

BJP MP and Wrestling Federation of India outgoing chief Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh is facing serious charges as the Delhi Police filed a complete 1,500-page chargesheet against him with the promised deadline of June 15.

The chargesheet, consisting of evidence gathered during the investigation, includes sections 354, 354D, and 345A of the Indian Penal Code, which pertain to sexual harassment and stalking.

Security measures were heightened outside Singh's Delhi residence prior to the filing of the chargesheet. Over 180 individuals were questioned in connection with the allegations, and the investigation involved taking a complainant to the Wrestling Federation of India's office and requesting audio, video, and photo evidence from two top women wrestlers who made sexual assault accusations against Singh.

The Delhi Police made efforts to gather additional information by reaching out to wrestling federations in other countries, but as of now, no responses have been received. If any inputs are received, a supplementary chargesheet will be filed to incorporate the new information. Moreover, the police conducted interviews with Singh's relatives, colleagues, and household staff at his residence in Gonda, Uttar Pradesh.

A 550-page cancellation report was filed by the Delhi Police in the POCSO (Protection of Children from Sexual Offences) case against Brij Bhushan. This case was based on allegations made by the minor's father, who later retracted the charges in a fresh statement.

The cancellation report cites the lack of evidence and the father's statement as reasons for seeking the dismissal of the case. A hearing on the cancellation is scheduled for July 4. A cancellation report is typically filed when no corroborative evidence is found.

The minor wrestler's father admitted to falsely accusing Brij Bhushan and revealed that his motivation behind the false case was anger over his daughter's loss in the 2022 Under-17 Asian Championship trial final.

Earlier, the protesting wrestlers had demanded that the chargesheet against Brij Bhushan be filed by June 15. In response, Sports Minister Anurag Thakur assured the wrestlers that they will fulfil their demand. However, the wrestlers warned that they would resume their protests if there was a delay in filing the charge sheet.
